“Nothing, not all the armies of the world, can stop an idea whose time has come”- Victor Hugo

On this week’s powerful show, Scott Binsack shares with you how he has taken traumatic hardships head on, using intense focus & sheer determination to identify his purpose life and to overcome great adversity.

Do you have purpose in your life?

There has to be motivation and drive when we want to achieve anything in life. Without it, we get caught up in the lifeless, humdrum world that unfortunately too many people experience day after day, month after month and year after year.
We were never meant to live our lives like machines, but for the majority of people that is exactly how they choose to live. They don’t want to think for themselves and would rather have somebody else tell them what to do. We have a brain, but how many really use it?

The power of purpose is indeed a great power and each and every human being has the choice to use it. We should all have a purpose to aim for, it is what brings excitement into our lives, looking forward to a new day, sharing new experiences and helping us to become the best that we can possibly be. A mundane life is no life, hoping and dreaming that something good will happen. It ain’t gonna happen!

You have to make it happen through the resolve of your own desire and the natural power of purpose. Look at how the world has moved even in the last thirty years. An idea has been planted by people that typify their own natural power of purpose, they wanted to make a difference and didn’t stop until they did. Look at the mobile phone, the home computer and the technology that is moving faster each and every day. These are just a few examples of what the power of purpose can achieve.

Now we can’t expect everyone to be a Bill Gates, Michael Dell or a Charles Dunston, but surely it is better to live your life with the natural power of purpose and to achieve feats that are maybe a little less conspicuous or you may want to change the world. It is a waste of life not to be driven on a daily basis with the desire to become more and live your life with the natural power of purpose.

Join Scott Binsack as he challenges you to find purpose in your life. Using his hard hitting tell it like it is style, Scott shows you how to harness your energies into creating a purposeful, meaningful, & successful life.

When tempers flare or pain and hurts transform into anger, we have a tendency of saying hurtful things; things that we don’t really mean. This is especially true when you have two passionate individuals involved. And the closer your relationship, it seems the nastier and more cutting those words tend to be.

When those hurtful words come tumbling out, there’s no retraction. Just as a bell can’t be un-rung, words can’t be un-said and we’re left to deal with the damage and consequences of words spoken in the heat of the moment.

For those on the receiving end of your words, those emotions can remain raw until you say those two words: “I’m sorry.” But those words only have mending power if they’re backed with genuine emotion. A casual “I’m sorry” is meaningless.

In some cases, a full apology is warranted. So what makes a good apology? It should have three parts:

• I’m sorry;

• It’s my fault (or an acknowledgement of wrong-doing); and

• What can I do to make it right?

Those are the components of a good, effective apology. But again, those words must be backed by genuine emotion. And unfortunately, most people forget the third part — the part when you take action to remedy the situation and the hurts that you’ve caused.

An apology is so much more than just words! An apology says so much more than just “I’m sorry.” It’s an acknowledgement of the fact that you’re not always right. An apology also shows that you truly care about the other person’s welfare and emotional well-being — a point that is essential for any healthy relationship. Apologies also serve to diffuse the situation, while acknowledging and validating the other individual’s feelings and opinions, even if you don’t agree with their perspective.

Equally important is knowing when not to say “I’m sorry.” Not every conflict requires an apology and over-using apologies can diminish their impact. You shouldn’t apologize for having your own emotional needs, for instance. But if you’re aware that the other person is wounded, but aren’t sincerely sorry, then use the opportunity to start a dialogue so you can arrive at a better understanding of each other. This involves actually listening to the other person’s perspective — something we often forget to do in the heat of the moment.

There’s also the timeframe of the apology. Waiting days or weeks will diminish the power of your apology. Don’t allow hurts to linger. And make no mistake: without a good apology, those hurts can and will linger for weeks, months, years — even an entire lifetime. Those words that tumbled out as part of spite and malice-filled tangent can cut
through your defenses, becoming embedded deep within your very spirit. And there they will remain until a sincere, genuine apology is offered up and the individual takes action to right the wrongs that led to those hurts.

In today’s episode of Sunday Night With Scott Binsack, we’ll explore apologies and the impact of those two words: “I’m sorry.”

Join “Scott Binsack” as he goes in depth to explore the life experiences and actions that have led him to say “I’m sorry.” We’ll also discuss what we can do to control our anger, so as to avoid saying words that we’ll come to regret. It’s a humbling show and one that simply can’t be missed!

“If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. If they don’t, they never were.”

[But is that really true?]

It’s the first show of 2015 and we’re going to tackle a tough topic: true love and the story of The Man in the Moon.

Last February, right around Valentine’s Day, we explored a story involving my mother and the man who would ultimately come to be known as The Man in the Moon.

It’s a profoundly moving and emotional story; one that has impacted me since childhood.

I used to believe in the saying, “If you love someone, you should set them free and if they truly love you, they’ll return.”

I no longer believe this.

I believe that if someone truly loves you, there will be no reason to set them free; they shouldn’t come crawling back after their first choice didn’t work out.

People tend to toss around the term ‘love’ as though it’s a casual term. But it’s anything but. Love is truly transformative and it’s a force that can change your life in the most powerful ways.

I consider myself a hopeless romantic; I believe in true love. I’ve learned that many abuse victims like myself find themselves on a lifelong quest to find true love. They’re often amongst the individuals with the biggest hearts and the deepest desire to love and be loved — even if that desire isn’t outwardly apparent through the hard, protective shell that many abuse victims develop.

When I first shared this story of the Man in the Moon, I didn’t share all of the specifics.

I’ve since realized that it’s a story that must be told — in its entirety.

Over the past year, it’s a story that’s taken on new meaning as I myself became a Man in the Moon.

Recent events have transformed my view of life and love. I’ve come to realize that I was wrong; that love and intimacy aren’t the only part of the equation.

There’s more.

The Story of the Man in the Moon

My mother was a woman who suffered many traumas in her life. She was from a lower-middle class family that was plagued by dysfunction; a dysfunction that came to a head when she witnessed her father hang her mother from a 13th floor window amidst a drunken rage. My father was from the other side of the tracks. He came from a prominent and wealthy family. My parents met at a driver’s ed class. My mother said she loved my father, but she wasn’t madly in love with him. She got married because that’s what was expected; getting married young was the norm. My mother’s true love was a man named Charlie — a man whom I’d come to know as The Man in the Moon. Charlie ultimately married another woman, just as my mother had married another man. But their respective marriages were no obstacle and they would meet in secret. Sometimes, I’d wait in the car, parked on the side of the road. I was just three or four years old when I first witnessed my mother in a rare state of pure happiness as she shared intimate moments with this man. Charlie’s moniker — The Man in the Moon — was practical yet accurate. He was a man who was ever-present in her life and in her heart, yet in many ways, he was inaccessible. It was a practical term too, since my mother frequently brought me along when she met up with The Man in the Moon. So when my father asked, “What did you do today?”, my honest reply would be a seemingly fanciful: “We saw the Man in the Moon.” After 14 years of marriage, my parents got divorced. But Charlie never left his wife — a woman who happened to be one of my mother’s best friends. In time, Charlie and I became friends. Years passed. One day, my mother and I met Charlie for lunch. At one point in the meal, my mother left the table, heading for the restroom. I’ve always been very direct and I asked, “You love my mother. Why won’t you leave your wife?” Charlie replied, “I have children, obligations…..But someday, we’ll make it work. Someday.” I knew that he truly loved my mother. And over the years, my mother continued to receive flowers, cards and other tokens of his affections. They continued to see each other, but Charlie never did leave his wife. In this way, he truly lived up to his moniker, The Man in the Moon, remaining ever-present yet inaccessible. So my mother set out on a mission to find another man. She sought to replicate the intense bond that she shared with Charlie. But true love was elusive. She re-married and divorced twice. In the end, my mother was miserable, forever haunted by the forbidden love she shared with The Man in the Moon. Years later, my father said, “I love your mom, but your mom was always in love with Charlie — The Man in the Moon. He should have married her.”
The story of The Man in the Moon has led me to realize that love exists separately from intimacy. And if you don’t have intimacy — an incredible bond with another human being — then you don’t have anything.

These are just some of the topics we’ll be exploring on the latest episode of Sunday Night With “Scott Binsack”. It’s a must-see episode; one that will force you to confront and reconsider your views of love, intimacy and true love.

“The REAL CHALLENGE of growth mentally, emotionally, spiritually comes when you get KNOCKED DOWN.” -“Scott Binsack”…
On this week’s hard hitting motivational series “Sunday Night With Scott Binsack”, Scott explores with us the power of taking CONTROL of YOUR life.

You cannot connect the dots looking forward. .. You can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will connect somewhere in the future. YOU HAVE TO TRUST IN SOMETHING your gut, destiny, karma, life, whatever. Because believing that the dots will connect somewhere down the road will give you the confidence to follow you heart. Even when it leads you off the well worn path. That will make all the difference.

YOUR TIME IS LIMITED!! Do not waste it living someone else s life! Don’t be trapped by dogma. Which is living with the results of other peoples thinking. Don’t let the noise of others drowned out your own inner voice. You have to find what you love. That is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, but the only way for you to be satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. The only way to great work is to love what you do! If you can’t find it … KEEP LOOKING AND NEVER SETTLE! Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become.

You will have some ups and downs. Most people give up on themselves easily. The human spirit is powerful. It’s hard to kill the human spirit. Anyone can feel good when they have their health, their bills are paid, happy relationships, anyone can be positive then! Anyone can have a larger vision. Then, anyone can have faith under those types of circumstances. The REAL CHALLENGE of growth mentally, emotionally, spiritually comes when you get KNOCKED DOWN! It takes courage to act. Part of being hungry when you are defeated it takes courage to start over. FEAR KILLS DREAMS! FEAR KILLS HOPE! Fear puts people in the hospital. Fear can age you. Fear can hold you back from something you know you’re capable of doing. It will paralyze you.

AT THE END OF YOUR FEELINGS IS NOTHING! BUT AT THE END OF EVERY PRINCIPLE IS A PROMISE! Behind your little feelings there might not be absolutely nothing. But at the end of every principle is a promise. For some of you, the reason why you’re not at your goal right now is because your all about your feelings. If you are focusing ONLY on your feelings, you might not like waking up. Who does! Every day that you say no to your dreams you might be pushing your dreams back a whole six months, a whole year. That one single day that you couldn’t get up could have pushed your goals back I don’t know how long.

DO NOT ALLOW YOUR EMOTIONS TO CONTROL YOU! We have emotions, but you want to learn to discipline your emotions. If you don’t discipline your emotions .. THEY WILL USE YOU! OWN YOU! If you want it its not going to be easy. Life is never easy. If it were easy everyone would do it. But if you want it you will go all out.

Tell yourself: I’M IN CONTROL HERE! I’M NOT GOING TO LET THIS GET ME DOWN! I’M NOT GOING TO LET THIS DESTROY ME! I’M COMING BACK STRONGER! I’M GOING TO BE BETTER BECAUSE OF IT!

YOU HAVE GOT TO MAKE A DECLARATION: “THIS IS WHAT I STAND FOR”. YOU’RE STANDING UP FOR YOUR DREAMS! YOUR STANDING UP FOR PEACE OF MIND, YOU’RE STANDING UP HEALTH! TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR LIFE. ACCEPT WHERE YOU ARE AND THE RESPONSIBILITY THAT YOUR GOING TO TAKE YOURSELF WHERE YOU WANT TO GO!!

YOU CAN DECIDE TO LIVE EVERY DAY AS IF IT WERE YOUR LAST! LIVE YOUR LIFE WITH PASSION. WITH DRIVE PUSH YOURSELF… “I AM IN CHARGE!”

A hard hitting, powerful insight into taking charge of your life emotionally, and taking yourself to the next level, delivered in the REAL style that only “Scott Binsack” can do! NOT TO BE MISSED!

The last motivational show Scott did “Are You a Wolf Or A Sheep” has been raved as serious hard hitting reality. Now this week he will be delivering another compelling show about “Identifying Your Passion.” Are you living your life doing what you are passionate about or are you simply existing? Passion can be anything powerful or compelling, a strong desire towards something or just overall enthusiasm in life. Having passion in your life helps give you personal power to live fully. When mind, body and spirit work together, it can help to manifest your potential and overcome obstacles. Many people shy away from seeking passion because of fear of failure and of taking the risks that will lead to an undefined future. Defining one’s passion in life is paramount in driving creativity and inspiration. Please join Scott as he shares his experience in how to find & maintain the passion which resides within us all.

~~ For living life without passion is simply not living. -“Scott Binsack”
